Jurors in the trial of Nima Momeni, accused of stabbing Cash App founder Bob Lee to death, today saw for the first time surveillance camera footage that prosecutors say captured the stabbing incident at the early morning hours of April 4, 2023.

As the courtroom watched quietly, with many standing to get a better view, prosecutor Omid Talai played blurry, blown-up footage of Momeni and Lee as witness and video recovery officer Milad Rashidian described what he saw. It is difficult to distinguish the features of the two men, but the images before and after show that Momeni was dressed in white and Lee was dressed in black.

After watching the two figures stand still, Talai pointed out a sudden movement by Momeni towards Lee. Then, the two separate. Momeni speeds away in her car as Lee begins to walk down the street, trying to call for help.

“I noticed the guy in white advancing toward the guy in black,” Rashidian said, after being shown the video.

Talai: The progress you’re seeing, have you noticed any kind of movement like that at any point before what we just talked about?

Rashidian: I didn’t.

After the alleged stabbing, Rashidian said, he saw Momeni make another move, when prosecutors say Momeni threw the murder weapon over the nearby fence.

Talai: What do you see happening right now?

Rashidian: The guy in white (Momeni) seems to walk towards the fence and lean on it.

In later, clearer video footage, Lee is seen stumbling away; He quickly comes across a car waiting at a red light and apparently tries to get the attention of those inside.

“It seems to be signaling,” Rashidian said. As the video continued to play, Talai asked him what he had seen. “Mr. Lee seems to collapse.”

From the audience, Lee’s ex-wife, Krista Leepanting. Later, Lee’s brother, Timothy Oliver Lee, called the video “very difficult to watch.”

Momeni, at those same moments, was followed by several cameras as he drove away in his white BMW. He runs a nearby red light and heads back to Emeryville.
